This is a quota-status program which displays the quota info in
the desktop 'notification area'.  It works using a getquota.pl script
since obtaining the quota data directly in python seems quite hard.

/alt/applic/quota-status/getquota.pl

calls the system quota commnad (used to use Quota.pm, but that has 
been deprecated)

The code works with both KDE and Gnome and should work as long as
python has access to the relevant modules.  The modules currently
needed are:

   os, sys, re, pygtk
   gtk, gtk.glade, gobject
   egg.trayicon

we currently require pygtk to be '2.0' but newer versions may also
work.

The code was originally based on the Linux quota display script from
David Collie <dccollie@engmail.uwaterloo.ca> which was listed as being
GPL, so this code is also GPL.

Currently the master versions of these files are held (under RCS) in
/alt/applic/quota-status/
